Amy is right now in preop getting a nerve block. Shortly she will be taken into surgery for an ORIF procedure where they will use a plate and some screws to repair Amys ankle fracture.

The procedure is supposed to last no more than an hour and is being done as same day surgery but please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

Ninja Baby is spending the weekend with friends/family so I get to clean.

Shes out of surgery. Doc said all is fine. Shes in recovery sleeping now.

Speedy recovery for Amy

Here's for a speedy recovery for Amy, after the surgery and for her ankle.

Perfection is, always, one step beyond, where my feet are.

I know to pain

I wish her well and a speedy recovery. I had my ankle fused in January and am going for Physical Therapy now. Ankles are hard to fix as they flex and are used for balance. Prayers go out to her.

There are two sides to every Ankle.

with a Bone in the middle.

I broke the ligaments on the inside of my Right Ankle in 1998 while on a business trip to Kazakhstan. The first words the surgeon who was going to 'fix' them said to me were, "It would have been better to have broken the bone. Ligaments are a lot more problematic"
four operations later and I knew what he meant. I still get some gyp from it today.

The Physios also said that bones are quicker to heal. I hope your physio goes well.

Surgery? It sounds like you

Surgery? It sounds like you got hit with multiple tears at the same time which is worse upon worse! I have put up with constantly strains like you had but was blessed to only endure one torn at a time, I can't imagine multiple tears.

I'm told STFU more times in a day than most people get told in a lifetime

best wishes

To her, hope everything comes out right

We the willing, led by the unsure. Have been doing so much with so little for so long,
We are now qualified to do anything with nothing.

Thank you for the update

Despite all of the recent server problems, I hadn't forgotten the post about Amy. I've been a little worried for all of you since I saw nothing being said one way or the other. I hope Amy heals quickly.
